One week after the major nationwide demonstrations with over 80,000 participants, Fridays for Future is calling for decentralized actions in dozens of cities on 24 April 2026 - including Saxony. The background to this is an escalating debate about the future of German energy policy. | mehr
Bones are not rigid structures – they adapt. Researchers have now shown that the inner structure of the tibia reveals how humans, apes, and monkeys move. This insight could help reconstruct the behavior of long-extinct ancestors. | mehr
Unternehmerinnen und Unternehmer in Sachsen stehen oft allein da, wenn es um die wirklich schwierigen Fragen geht. Entscheidungen, die niemand im Team mittragen kann. Zweifel, die man ungern im eigenen Netzwerk ausspricht. Und Momente, in denen man merkt: Austausch auf Augenhöhe ist selten – und doch entscheidend für gute Führung. | mehr
Using two highly sensitive electron microscopes, researchers at Chemnitz University of Technology are now looking deep inside materials, right down to the level of individual atoms. What this means for everyday products, materials and the scientific region of Saxony. | mehr

Dogs were already living alongside humans more than 14,000 years ago. A new international study, involving the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig, shows how advanced genetic methods are reshaping the history of our closest animal companion. | mehr
Chimpanzees help spontaneously, orangutans plan ahead, bonobos remember specifically: The Wolfgang Köhler Primate Research Center, nicknamed "Pongoland" and the only one of its kind in the world, is celebrating its 25th anniversary at Leipzig Zoo. | mehr
Zahnbehandlungen können in Deutschland schnell zur finanziellen Belastung werden. Besonders bei Implantaten, Kronen, Brücken oder umfangreichem Zahnersatz liegen die Kosten häufig im vierstelligen Bereich. Viele Patienten stehen dann vor einer schwierigen Entscheidung: Behandlung durchführen lassen und hohe Eigenanteile zahlen – oder den Eingriff aufschieben, obwohl er medizinisch sinnvoll wäre. | mehr
Why do we stop eating? The answer lies deeper in the body than previously thought. An international team of researchers, including scientists from Leipzig University, has now discovered how fatty acids inside cells help regulate appetite – and identified what is believed to be an evolutionary precursor of today’s best-known weight-loss hormones. | mehr
Flying without kerosene – is that possible? In Kamenz, TU Dresden is testing how climate-friendly propulsion systems perform in real flight. A new research aircraft aims to bridge the gap between lab experiments and real-world use. | mehr

Huge presses shape metal parts for cars, data centres and hydrogen technologies. However, they are expensive, large and energy-intensive. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology (IWU) in Dresden want to change that. With a smart rolling process and real-time monitoring, manufacturers could reduce costs by up to 70 percent in the future – without compromising quality. | mehr
TU Dresden can continue to call itself a University of Excellence – the only one in Eastern Germany. Up to 15 million euros per year will be invested in cutting-edge research from 2027. What this means for Saxony. | mehr
